[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-427?page=all ]

Ross Gardler updated FOR-427:
-----------------------------

    Fix Version:     (was: 0.8-dev)
    Description: 
Since plugins can be hosted on different sites they can be released under 
licenses other than the Apache one. We need an element in plugins.xml that 
records the type of license a plugin is released under. This element should be 
used by the plugin install process to verify that the user agrees to the terms 
of that license before download and installation is started.
